Otherworldly Companions: Every Handsome Man is Extraordinary

"Madam, please save me." Zhong Qin prostrated himself at Madam Tini's feet, raising his stunningly beautiful face. At this moment, his face was filled with grief, and tears streamed uncontrollably from his eyes, quickly sliding down his smooth, fair face like full pearls hitting the ground.

The sight of him weeping added a fragile, broken quality to his breathtaking beauty, and even Mrs. Tinie, who had been intimate with him, couldn't help but be captivated by his beauty.

The legendary mermaids, known for their stunning beauty, have long since vanished. If one day we were to see a face emerge from the abyss, it would probably resemble Zhong Qin's appearance.

Compared to Chen Xin, who was gaping in disbelief and had no idea what was happening, Jiang Yu was so shocked and angry that she felt a sharp pain in her internal organs. The man before her not only possessed the stunning beauty of a merman, but he also inherited the cunning and cruel nature of a mythical abyssal sea monster.

"Madam, I know you pity me. I risked everything to bring the two lords here. Please, please uphold justice for me!" Zhong Qin said pitifully. Anyone who didn't know better would have thought that Chen Xin and Jiang Yu had committed some unforgivable crime against him.

Chen Xin felt her brain had rusted and was no longer functioning. The scene before her was utterly bizarre: her lover was kneeling at the feet of a middle-aged woman she didn't recognize, crying and begging for help? What had happened to him? Why wasn't he seeking her help? Who pitied him? When had he met this seemingly high-ranking woman?

She didn't even feel any particular emotion; she just stood there blankly.

Jiang Yu saw this and felt extremely distressed, but she couldn't let her friend remain completely unaware of what was happening.

She pulled Chen Xin to her side and said urgently, "This is Mrs. Tini, the wife of the Emperor of the Ocean Empire."

"The Emperor's wife?" Chen Xin turned to Jiang Yu in a daze, her shock so great that she could only mechanically repeat her friend's words before stammering, "Such a noble status... how could Zhong Qin know her..."

"Get up, my child. I'm here, and I won't let anyone bully you anymore." Mrs. Tini pulled Zhong Qin up with heartache, unaware of the shameful lust churning beneath her ostensible pity.

Fan Qingyin's face darkened further. "Disgusting," the divine messenger thought to himself, inwardly vomiting. The lofty etiquette and moral principles of the royal family were inferior to those of commoners; beneath their opulent facade lay a filthy and shameful stench. The First Lady of the Empire, so licentious and utterly incapable of distinguishing right from wrong.

"What exactly is going on?" Chen Xin finally came to her senses and asked in a stiff voice. She felt like a fool, completely kept in the dark.

"Xin Xin, listen to me," Jiang Yu carefully chose her words. At this moment, she couldn't care less about Zhong Qin and Mrs. Tini's disgusting faces; she was only worried about her friend's mental state. She was truly afraid that Chen Xin would collapse: "Zhong Qin has ulterior motives. He's not what you and I originally thought. Xin Xin, don't be too sad..."

"Qin, why are you holding her hand? Come here." Chen Xin seemed to ignore her, staring intently at Mrs. Tini and Zhong Qin's clasped hands.

"Lord Chen Xin, I beg you, please spare me!" Zhong Qin looked extremely terrified upon hearing this, as if he had been abused before. "Although I am of lowly status, I just want to be a clean person and not be a plaything. Please, I have, no, I have finally found my protection. Lady Tini, yes, Lady Tini will definitely protect me and pull me out of this quagmire!"

He finished speaking in a panic, then looked back at Mrs. Tinie with extreme dependence, standing somewhat timidly behind her as if grasping at the last straw.

Mrs. Tiny felt a surge of pity. To see such a frail, beautiful woman looking at her with such trusting and affectionate eyes filled her with immense satisfaction.

She couldn't help but recall the first time she saw him, his stubborn yet hopeful gaze; his wary yet affectionate look as she slowly approached him; his loving and completely trusting gaze when he finally accepted her; and his intoxicated and lustful gaze as he knelt beneath her skirt and on top of her...

He is hers, and she will never allow anyone to hurt him.

"Qin, what's wrong with you? What are you saying?" Chen Xin trembled all over. She understood something but refused to believe it. She even forced a smile: "I'm sorry, Qin. Have I been neglecting you these past few days? Don't be angry. Don't say such hurtful things."

"You're still putting on an act! Don't even think about fooling me anymore!" Zhong Qin preemptively shouted, "This is how you tricked me into falling into your trap of tenderness, making me believe that you would love me, that you would give me a legitimate identity, and that you tricked me into falling in love with you." Zhong Qin started crying again, tears streaming down her face.

"But after you got me, you wanted to offer me to Lord Jiangyu, trying to climb up this tree!" Zhong Qin loudly accused, "I love you so much, but your feelings are all false and deceitful. This is not love; you just treat me as a plaything and a pawn!"

Jiang Yu and Fan Qingyin were both stunned. What kind of amazing plot development was this? Jiang Yu couldn't help but applaud Zhong Qin in her heart. His ability to distort the truth was simply the best in the world. If he were born in Hollywood, he would probably have no chance of winning an Oscar.

Jiang Yu couldn't help but rush forward, trying to pull Zhong Qin out. She even wanted to slap him a few times and make him come out and speak like a human being.

Fan Qingyin was a beat slow in stopping his wife. He looked at Zhong Qin with a complicated expression, once again shocked by the man's ugly face.

"How dare you! Lord Jiang Yu probably doesn't even know where this is! Do you remember who I am? Is this how General Jiang Ren's family teaches you? Is this how you behave in front of royalty and elders?" Lady Tini said sternly, shielding Zhong Qinchao from behind.

"Mrs. Tini, don't be fooled by his sweet talk. He's talking nonsense. That's not the truth!" Jiang Yu said loudly. She really wanted to pry open this lady's head to see if there was anything else inside besides water.

“Oh? You’re saying he’s talking nonsense? What evidence do you have?” Mrs. Tinie retorted.

"Let me start from the beginning. Zhong Qin is just a gardener's apprentice..." Jiang Yu was interrupted by Mrs. Tini before she could finish her sentence.

"Just because he's just a humble gardener, does that give you the right to covet his good looks and do whatever you want to him?!"
